Pictures: Filming for Wonka comes to an end at Lyme Regis

By Lottie Welch

15th Oct 2021 | Local News

An exciting few days at Lyme Regis has come to an end, with filming for Wonka scenes at the historic Cobb being completed.

Filming began on Monday and stars Timothée Chalamet, who plays the Roald Dahl character Willy Wonka, Olivia Coleman, Rowan Atkinson and Matt Lucas were spotted and they drew quite a crowd while they were here, with fans gathering in the area.

The Cobb and harbour were dressed in fake snow and nineteenth century props, with the 1930s steam drifter Lydia Eva - which stopped off in West Bay on its way to Lyme Regis - moored off the Cobb.

We look forward to watching it, but for now we will share some more snaps of their time in Lyme.
